BRINGING UNTOLD STORIES INTO LIGHT
Whether from the participants in animal or plant kingdoms and the seemingly detached creations like mountains, rocks, anthills, or inventions each has a unique story. Are you interested in telling the unfolding, or reading about the creation? I love both. My work in health, gender, politics, and entertainment spans more than three decades. It has been featured in publications and online such as Uganda’s The Monitor, The New Vision, The East African, Panos London, and Inter Press Services. I told stories about the work of different development organizations, and what bearing their work has in communities where they work. This journey has connected me through fixer gigs with Canadian and American journalists who trekked to Africa to see and tell.
